Federal BC40CT1 BallistiClean 40S&W 125gr Frangible Training Ammo

The Federal BC40CT1 BallistiClean ammunition delivers lead-free frangible training rounds specifically engineered for reduced hazard indoor and close-quarters training environments. This 40 S&W cartridge eliminates lead exposure concerns while maintaining ballistic consistency with duty ammunition. The 125-grain frangible bullet disintegrates upon impact with hard surfaces, virtually eliminating ricochet and splatter hazards that compromise training safety.

What Makes This Different

Unlike traditional lead-core training ammunition, the BallistiClean system uses a compressed copper-tin powder core that fragments completely upon striking steel targets or backstops. This frangible design reduces airborne lead contamination by over 99% compared to conventional rounds while delivering identical point of impact to standard duty loads. The clean-burning powder formulation minimizes residue buildup in both firearms and ventilation systems.

Key Features

• Lead-free frangible bullet eliminates heavy metal exposure in training environments
• 125-grain bullet weight matches common duty ammunition for consistent training transfer
• Compressed copper-tin core fragments on hard impact, reducing ricochet risk
• Clean-burning powder reduces fouling and extends cleaning intervals
• Nickel-plated brass cases provide reliable extraction and corrosion resistance
• Consistent muzzle velocity maintains point of impact with duty rounds
• Bulk packaging with 50 rounds per box, 20 boxes per case (1,000 total rounds)

Law enforcement agencies and competitive shooters rely on BallistiClean for high-volume training scenarios where lead contamination poses health risks. The frangible bullet design performs effectively on steel targets, reactive targets, and close-quarters training courses without the ventilation requirements of traditional ammunition. Ballistic performance remains consistent across temperature ranges, maintaining accuracy standards for qualification and skill development programs.
